The Great Handbag Scandal of ‘09

England World Cup Blog 06 November @ 02:17 AM EST

Could this work of art kill England's World Cup Bid?


OK so perhaps the title is a tad hyperbolic, but really things are getting ridiculous. A quick refresher course for those of you who have missed this: England (as you all should know) is bidding to host the 2018 World Cup.

Evening Links and Thoughts: Coaching Craziness

WVHooligan 03 November @ 05:52 PM EST

As mentioned earlier on my Twitter feed today has been a slow day due to some bad headaches on my end. I won't go into it much but I am feeling a little better after some medicine kicked in here (thanks to the few who asked). I didn't have much planned for tonight but I did want to get into the coaching carousel that is going on in Major League Soccer.

Crew Stadium is the New Fenway Park

The Offside - Columbus 01 October @ 07:50 PM EST

Well, at least that's what Drew over at WVHooligan says:

7. Crew Stadium – Being the original it gets a little more love from me. I know it lacks a lot of goodies but at the end of the day I think it will end up being the Fenway Park of MLS. Though in some thoughts I don't know how good of a thing that will actually be.

  • Bolt visited the Bernabeu and met all his amigos, including Benzema, Greaseano, Kaka and even Potter Perez. He got a super cool shirt with the number "958″ at the back. Check out his autograph style- "Fr : Kaka". Hmmm, we can't spot Ricky's signature on the shirt.

Bring me the head of David Villa - and the rest of him too

Arseblog 11 June @ 06:12 AM EST

Often it takes a young player some time to settle in at Arsenal. They need to get to know the way the club operates, its values, its traditions, the rivalries and such.

This does not seem to apply to Carlos Vela who wrote himself into the book of legendary Arsenal quotes without so much as kicking a ball for us yet.
